I am curious about the reason why they were banned.

    PSA for people who think this is banning someone from the whole of lemmy or think it’s like getting banned on reddit.

    This is an instance of lemmy. Every instance can have it’s own rules and admins, you aren’t banned from every lemmy instance just this one. You can go and do whatever got you banned here on an instance that allows it. Right now there aren’t a lot of busy instances but in the future there probably will be and that’s kind of a risk you take getting on the nerves of the admins lol.

      Except Lemmy isn’t federated yet so that’s not true at all.

          yes but this instance isn’t meaning you you get banned you cannot export or redirect your profile so “lemmy is federated” claim is completely irrelevant in this case. Might as well say “lemmy is open source so user is not banned from used the software just this server”

          The value of decentralization is the fact that your profile isn’t held hostage anywhere.

            Thats fair, I guess it is a bit early to say that but I do still think it’s good to make it known as it is the principle of the platform.

      Ya reddit 0.1? hurt the admins feelings and get banned? Good luck getting this place to catch on. look at .win which is growing the fastest, you need to be completely tolerant to other ideas and people to grow platform.

        bruh thats the whole point of lemmy and federation… just make your own free speech instance if you think you can somehow keep it from becoming an alt right shithole. Also lol .win is not tolerant.
